Book Review: The Go-To Girl

Summary:From BN.com:Gorgeous goddesses seem to surround lowly script-reader Anna Brown—from
her deranged, glamour-queen boss to her perfect, pouting roommates. For Anna,
being less-than-beautiful is hard to bear. With a dead-end job and a dead-beat
boyfriend, she wonders if she can ever be a success. In beauty-crazed London,
perhaps being talented just isn't enough. Enter Mark Swan, Britain's hottest
director. Rugged, reclusive and powerful, everybody wants a piece of him—from
studio heads to supermodels. He could be Anna's ticket to the top, but how can she
ever hope to snag such a big star? Fed up with being dowdy and downbeat, Anna
decides to chase her dreams, and with a little help from her friends, embarks
on a madcap scheme to get what she's after.

What I
Liked:It’s a great story about a girl
overcoming obstacles to fulfill a dream.She also gets to tell her “friends” just what she thinks.

What I Didn’t
Like:I kind of wish that the
antagonists got a little more of the comeuppance.I felt they deserved a little move, but
mainly because I was routing for the main character so much.

Overall
Thoughts:It’s a very easy read and a
fun story to follow.I enjoyed it enough
to keep it on my shelf.I may revisit it
later.

Final
Rating:Silver Star

Recommend?:If you are looking for a fun chick lit read,
grab this one.
